Rk Titanium Exhaust w/ Rear Stock Power Brace

[xplizitremix]

Did anyone running the RK titanium exhaust have issues running the rear stock power brace?
I can't seem to make it fit unless i've done something wrong.
I thought about running washers and possibly longer bolts?

Does anyone have the specs to that?

I did with the injen setup which is a single 3.5” and threw the damn brace away. Don’t run it now or ever will. You don’t need it, it’s so flimsy it can’t provide anything. You could space it with washers if you want. I’m running the AWE touring setup now which would fit fine with the brace and won’t reinstall. Just toss it out!

Flimsy like the card board that goes on the back of bookcases with penny nails? Yes. That said, the same piece of card board sure does a whole lot once put on. I’d have to assume the engineers and all of their data and testing added it for a reason.

Put some spacers under it. My SHS exhaust is 4" and came with spacers and longer bolts for that brace

Engineers don't usually complicate designs with frivolous parts, along with the hardware to attach them. They are pressed for time and resources as it is LOL.
Keep the part unless you have already done something to the car that makes it unnecessary (roll cage, etc).
Not sure if adding a spacer negates the effectiveness, but it's worth a try.

Any idea the bolt specs? I might just do that, reason i asked was i didn't want to not reinstall it

I don't know the bolt specs. They came with the exhaust. You might contact SHS

Id keep trying to refit it. My friend has the RK with stock brace and clears with plenty of space.

How do you like the injen single?

I ran the one that is a dual under the bumper but 3.5” under the car. It was loud and droned. I wouldn’t buy anything but AWE touring for this car
